1. Pressure-Temperature Relationship in Gases
Combined Gas Law:
According to the law, if temperature remains constant, but volume is changed, pressure will change to keep equal
proportion.
KiloPascal (kPa) - metric unit for pressure Kelvin (k) - Standard International
unit of temperature
100kPa • 1.00m3 = 50kPa • 2.00m3

![Page 5: Middle Grades General Science 5-9 FTCE Test Prep 4 th Edition](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020320/56816865550346895ddec282/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
4. Newton’s Laws
Third Law - For every action (force applied) there is an equal but opposite reaction (equal force applied in the opposite direction).
First Law - An object will stay at rest or move at a constant velocity (constant speed in a straight line) unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
Second Law - The rate of change of the momentum of a body is directly proportional to the net force acting on it, and the direction of the change in momentum takes place in the direction of the net force.

5. Gravity, EMF, Velocity, & Friction
Gravity- A pulling force of attraction between objects that increases with the mass of the objects.
Electromagnetic Force – The interaction between charged particles arising from their magnetic and electric properties.
Velocity – Measure of the rate of movement of an object in a given direction. (Not a force!!!)
Frictional Force – The rubbing of one object against another that can cause the motion of the object(s) to change.

7. Doppler Effect
This source of waves is moving to the left. The frequency is higher on the left, and lower on the right.
The Doppler Effect is the apparent change in frequency and wavelength of a wave that is perceived by an observer moving relative to the source of the waves.

10. Electric Circuits (Page 1 of 2)
Complete CircuitAny circuit in which current is able to run through it in order to do some kind of work.
Parallel CircuitVoltages across components are the same, but each component dropsdifferent amounts of current.
![Page 12: Middle Grades General Science 5-9 FTCE Test Prep 4 th Edition](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020320/56816865550346895ddec282/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
10. Electric Circuits (Page 2 of 2)
Series CircuitCurrent remains constant but voltagedrops differently across componentsof the circuit that have resistance.
Short CircuitAllows current to travel along a path where there is essentially no resistance, removing power from other working components.

Spreading centers occur where two plates are moving away from each other, and deep cracks are opened.
Fracture zones are linear oceanic features resulting from the action of offset mid-ocean ridge segments.
Transform fault lines are where two tectonic plates slide past one another, common in mid-ocean ridge regions.
Subduction zones involve an oceanic plate sliding beneath either a continental plate or another oceanic plate.

13. Weather
Hurricanes are fueled by the release of latent heat as water vapor condenses over warm ocean water.
High pressure systems are formed from the cooling and sinking of air.
Midlatitude cyclones are the result of the dynamic interaction of warm tropical and cold polar air masses.
Tornadoes form as columns of warm, humid air begin to rise quickly.
![Page 17: Middle Grades General Science 5-9 FTCE Test Prep 4 th Edition](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020320/56816865550346895ddec282/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
14. Mass of Stars (Page 1 of 2)
The “main sequence” is a continuous and distinctive band of stars that appears on plots of color versus luminosity.
(Does not apply to red giants or white dwarfs.)
![Page 18: Middle Grades General Science 5-9 FTCE Test Prep 4 th Edition](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020320/56816865550346895ddec282/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
14. Mass of Stars (Page 2 of 2)
In astrophysics, the mass–luminosity relation is an equation giving the relationship between a star's mass and its luminosity. The relationship is represented by the equation:
L⊙ and M⊙ are the luminosity & mass and 3 < a < 6. (The value a = 3.5 is commonly
used for main sequence stars.)

A spectroscope takes light and splits it up into its component colors. Different elements make different colors when they glow. The spectroscope spreads out the colors of the light, and we can identify the elements by the bright lines we see in a spectroscope.
15. Star CompositionA gas chromatograph is an instrument used to separate a sample substance into components in gas chromatography.
Reflecting telescopes use curved mirrors to reflect light and form an image.
Microscopes use magnifying lenses to help inspect small objects.
![Page 20: Middle Grades General Science 5-9 FTCE Test Prep 4 th Edition](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020320/56816865550346895ddec282/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Oxygen is required by organisms because it reacts with glucose to release energy.
16. Aerobic Respiration
Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy
C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy

18. RNA Production
(a) DNA info is transcribed to RNA. (b) This RNA is then subject to post-transcription, resulting in a mature mRNA that is then transported out of the nucleus and into the cytoplasm. (c) Then mRNA goes through translation into a protein by ribosomes. (d) Synthesized proteins (black) often go through post-translation, such as by binding to an effector molecule (orange), to become fully active.
Note: Replication occurs when DNA makes newer strands of itself.
